Larry Dale with Laura Ingraham

Laura Ingraham hosted Larry Day of the Orlando-Sanford Airport on passenger screenings.

Ingraham said it is repulsive to her that a child be patted down and that she wouldn't favor an advanced scan. He said if there is some anomaly in a custodial search, he might consider a patdown, but it is not likely. Both he and Ingraham felt it was a n outrage that a child in a wheelchair would be patted down.

Ingraham pointed to the Israelis and Turks who do a profiling protocol which could work at smaller airports and favors a more targeted approach.

Dale said he is waiting to hear about his petition for his airport to go private.
